EDITOR'S NOTE

"Talking It Over" is a new, occasional feature of the Opinion page. From time to time we'll highlight a letter to the editor. We'll write a brief response, which we'll show to the letter writer, then invite the writer to respond. We'll publish all three parts - the original letter, our reply, and the reader's last word - as a kind of brief conversation. Here's our first try.
